In an Attempt to Introduce Long-range Interactions into Small-world Networks

Distinguishing the long-range bonds with the regular ones, the critical temperature of the spin-lattice Guassian model built on two typical Small-world Networks (SWNs) is studied. The results show much difference from the classical case, and thus may induce some more accurate discussion on the critical properties of the spin-lattice systems combined with the SWNs.

The Third Law of Quantum Thermodynamics in the Presence of Anomalous Couplings

The quantum thermodynamic functions of a harmonic oscillator coupled to a heat bath through velocity-dependent coupling are obtained analytically. It is shown that both the free energy and the entropy decay fast with the temperature in relation to that of the usual coupling from. This implies that the velocity-dependent coupling helps to ensure the third law of thermodynamics.

Optimal path of diffusion over the saddle point and fusion of massive nuclei

Diffusion of a particle passing over the saddle point of a two-dimensional quadratic potential is studied via a set of coupled Langevin equations and the expression for the passing probability is obtained exactly. The passing probability is found to be strongly influenced by the off-diagonal components of inertia and friction tensors. If the system undergoes the optimal path to pass over the saddle point by taking an appropriate direction of initial velocity into account, which departs from the potential valley and has minimum dissipation, the passing probability should be enhanced. Application to fusion of massive nuclei, we show that there exists the optimal injecting choice for the deformable target and projectile nuclei, namely, the intermediate deformation between spherical and extremely deformed ones which enables the fusion probability to reach its maximum.
